Whew...this was really a challenge. For me the challenge was not making the accordion tag....it was not even making the accordion tag a "Spring/Springbreak theme....My challenge was making the accordion Spring tag mini using Tim Holtz product....Incorporating Tim Holtz product is just my own personal challenge . I just want to see how much of his product I could actually use....so yes, I am challenging myself to use Tim Holtz for "every" challenge...I was okay the first few challenges......His product just kind of flowed naturally with what the challenge was......And then came ....Challenge #4....(hehe...)

Our challenge was to make a 4-paneled tag. .....We were also challenged to cut words and ink them......This was soooo much fun...I did not know which way I was going with this one.....But.....here it is.....TFL....Oops.... I forgot to place the link to the challenge site @ Stampin'Dymonz Scrap Shack.

My Accordion Tag is a "Spring Couture" Mini....I purchased the DCWV "Lady Couture" stack a while back and vowed to use it.....Perfect timing for me....I was going in another direction earlier...but squashed that project ...and started this one..... I cutout "Spring Couture" using PC Don Juan- cut @ .5" and inked with White Joanns essential ink.

Front view of Accordion Tag. The back panel has a tag with one of the ladies cutout and glued on the front side of the tag. The lady on the 3rd tag is also a cutout. But only adhered to the panel. I did not do anything to the second panel.

View of panels without the journaling tags. I embossed images of Tim Holtz Haberdashery stamps to the panels and used Tim Holtz ruler ribbon as inserts for the journaling tags.
